Firestone Park Announces New Facility Reservation System

The Harvey S. Firestone Recreational Park in Columbiana is taking their facility reservation system online, effective September 25, 2023.

The new system will allow members of the public to check the availability of and make reservations for the park’s enclosed pavilions and picnic shelters, check the status of their existing reservations, and make credit card payments for those rentals as far as nine months in advance.

The park will still accept cash, check, and money order payments, but people wishing to use those payment methods must call the park office to make their reservation. The new system will require everyone who rents a facility to have an email address in order to receive a receipt or log in to the system to track their reservations, even if they call the office.

Starting on September 25, 2023, the public will be able to access the system from the city website on the Firestone Park and Cemetery page www.columbianaohio.gov/firestone-park. Reservations for January 1, 2024, and later will use the new system, and reservations will be permitted nine months in advance of the rental date. The park’s office staff will be available to answer any questions and help users navigate the online reservation process. The office is open 9:00-3:30, Monday through Friday, and can be reached at (330) 482-2656 or [email protected].

Firestone Park is located at the center of Columbiana and is the recreational cornerstone of the city. Rental facilities include four enclosed pavilions, each with a cooktop, sink, and electricity; three open picnic shelters; and the new Idabelle Firestone’s Gathering Place & Garden, an elegant indoor/outdoor event venue. It’s an ideal place to reconnect with nature with a stroll on the walking trail, let your canine friends romp in the expansive dog park, or enjoy a moment of reflection by Mirror Lake.
